Immigrants are not the reason there’s a housing crisis. They’re not the reason ERs are full and people don’t have healthcare. They’re not the reason food is so expensive. They’re the scapegoat. As long as you blame immigrants, you won’t realize the 1% are taking everything.

So this man is having Chad-affirming surgery?

I feel a little bad whenever I see an AI "artist" talking about having their AI prompts stolen, because the rocket full of people I'm going to shoot into the sun is already packed WAY over cargo capacity.

It would be nice if Congress decided to exist and rein in this blatantly illegal activity. www.cnn.com/2025/12/29/p...

Whose inauguration?

Just. Not. Done.

Fascist insanity.

“There is palpable fear throughout the community… now if you’re an immigrant you’re not going to call law enforcement when you’re the victim of a crime…” ICE has detained nearly 6,000 people in Tennessee alone - most NOT violent criminals. Full: www.wkrn.com/news/tenness...

I don't hear MacKenzie Scott bitching that people don't like her online

“She broke the news herself, by announcing on Instagram and X on Christmas Day that she could now return to the US, and specifically thanking the State Department’s Joe Rittenhouse, a senior adviser on consular affairs and former Trump presidential campaign worker, for his help.

Whose inauguration is he planning???

Nothing about this quote about a “ballroom” suggests “peaceful transfer of power.”

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)

"One major question, going into 2026, is which party will speak for the Americans who abhor the incursions of AI into their lives and want to see its reach restricted. Another is whether widespread public hostility to [AI] even matters given all the money behind it." - @michellegoldberg.bsky.social

CNN has added this update to their story about the alleged CIA drone strike in Venezuela:

Photos are not allowed after a clerk has your item.

As of 12/24/25, USPS changed policy on when they postmark mail. Mail dropped off is no longer guaranteed a same-day postmark. Tax returns & other time-sensitive items are now stamped when they reach a regional processing center, which may be days later. Plan deadlines accordingly to avoid penalties.

Look ahead promptly to how this will affect Vote By Mail this fall.

The succeeding in question

UPDATE: grandpa also sometimes burns a covert action

The US is at war with Venezuela. No Congressional authorization, no public debate, no clearly stated goal, no casus belli, and a gradual ramp up rather than big opening, so many haven’t noticed (or deny it). But this attack removes the ambiguity. US is at war with Venezuela. With no end in sight.

“Vouchers,” lordy

This won’t turn out well. nypost.com/2025/12/29/m...

“Over the long Christmas break, the president of the United States may have leaked classified information about a secret military operation targeting Venezuela, and did so while calling in to a New York radio show – hosted by a ‘Marty Supreme’ cast member – to brag…

really love this summation of the movie

To hell with gang of eight oversight. This should be condemned by every member of Congress. It's an act of war and as bad as Putin's invasion of Ukraine. The Felon's blowing up of boats in the Caribbean and Pacific are crimes.

Eisenhower ~ "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed" The military is using Hellfire missiles in the Pacific at a cost of $150,000 to $220,000 apiece.

“Is he dead yet?” should be the first question asked at every White House press conference. “OK, but it’s happening soon, right?” should be the second. And then maybe “how fucked are you all once he’s dead and can’t pardon you anymore?” if they’re still at the lectern

This is what Trump was referring to regarding a US strike inside Venezuela. A significant development and not likely the last. Many more small ports there are supposedly used for drugs: www.cnn.com/2025/12/29/p...

So the President did disclose a CIA drone strike inside Venezuela. And this does cross a red line of violating the UN Charter -- where the boat strikes on high seas had not. www.cnn.com/2025/12/29/p...

Oh look. Another of the wars Trump claims to have stopped. Ish.

One was supposed to give Melania a pass because *at least* she was loving and protective of Barron. Wonder how that one turned out…

An attack in violation of Article 2(4) of the UN Charter and the Take Care Clause of the Constitution. Seemingly conducted as covert action and then casually disclosed by POTUS while calling into a radio show. www.cnn.com/2025/12/29/p...

ACLU: NIH Agrees to Evaluate and Complete Review on Stalled Scientific Grant Applications Parties resolve claims on behalf of applicants harmed by unlawful directives bit.ly/4jg5SSW @aclu.org @apha.org @aclum.bsky.social

BREAKING: The National Institutes of Health has agreed to evaluate grant applications that were wrongfully frozen due to the Trump administration’s ideological purge of biomedical research.

NEW from me — I broke down Trump's claim on local right wing radio that the US carried out a Christmas Eve land strike in Venezuela, how he doubled down Monday, the subsequent media reports with no substance, the potential role of social media rumors about an actual fire, and how we need the truth:

Haha. Ha. Oh

Zuck is bad.

This is that 10/90 split economists keep talking about. If you make >$150k a year (top 10% of Americans), everything is AWESOME. If you make less than that, you are struggling to even engage meaningfully in the economy. The collapse has escaped the balance sheets and is visible to the naked eye now.

Did the United States really spend trillions of dollars on winning the Cold War, only for its president in 2025 take orders from a Russian dictator? This is an earth-shattering humiliation for America of which its reputation may never recover.

Why do ICE thugs wear masks? A: so they can’t be sued, prosecuted, and jailed later for their abuse.

the thing is, it’s never aliens
